 This
September, Marvel Enterprises (NYSE: MVL) and Lionsgate (NYSE: LGF)
unveil the DVD and Blu-ray Disc debut of a new generation of super
heroes in the Marvel Universe – Next Avengers: Heroes of Tomorrow. Make
way for the rebirth of Earth’s mightiest crime fighting organization as
the children of the original team join forces in this new epic animated
feature with greater kid appeal than ever before. Next Avengers: Heroes
of Tomorrow marks the very first PG-rated movie in the history of
Marvel’s animated features franchise and will be available on DVD and
Blu-ray Disc on September 2, 2008 for the suggested retail prices of
$19.98 and $29.99, respectively.
The new film introduces a younger generation of heroes: orphans bound
only by their parents’ former alliance known as The Avengers. Fostered
by the misbehaved billionaire bachelor Tony Stark (aka Iron Man), four
amazing teenagers with lineage to some of the most revered heroes of all
time including Captain America, Black Widow, Thor, Black Panther, Wasp
and Giant Man suddenly find themselves the earth’s only hope in stopping
a deadly foe. With the help of Marvel juggernaut The Incredible Hulk,
the team will hone their powers and go head to head with the very enemy
responsible for their parents’ demise.
With an animation style and a storyline that stays true to its hugely
popular comic roots – a constant theme across all Marvel Animated
Features – the Next Avengers: Heroes of Tomorrow DVD and Blu-ray Disc
special features include a unique behind the scenes look at the popular
comic franchise with the featurette entitled "Legacy: The Making of Next
Avengers: Heroes of Tomorrow." In addition, both the DVD and the Blu-ray
Disc will include the "Kid Power: Next Gen Marvel" featurette. But
perhaps the most talked about bonus features included are the eagerly
anticipated first looks at the upcoming titles Hulk Vs. Wolverine and
Hulk Vs. Thor.
NEXT AVENGERS: HEROES OF TOMORROW SYNOPSIS
Whenever the forces of evil threatened mankind, Earth’s mightiest heroes
the Avengers were there to stop them — until they made the ultimate
sacrifice in their final fight with the indestructible robot, Ultron.
But all was not lost for Tony Stark (Iron Man) kept the children of the
Avengers safe and raised them to become the teenage heroes of tomorrow.
Now James (Son of Captain America and Black Widow), Torunn (Daughter of
Thor), Azari (Son of the Black Panther), and Pym (Son of Wasp and Giant
Man) must finish the fight their parents started. Soon the
arrow-slinging son of Hawkeye will join their ranks but it will take
more than five teens to destroy the machine that defeated their parents.
If these young heroes have any hope of winning they must find the
missing Hulk and come together as… the Next Avengers!
